#Whakarewarewa Village is an authentic living #Maori village. On a guided tour they will serve a third corn cob heated by volcanic water and steam. The tour is very interesting and it comes with a cultural show. #NewZealand https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Rotorua/#village
Nice coverage of the Ferguson farm tractors used by Sir Ed Hillary's team in the 1957 Commonwealth Expedition to cross Antarctica.

Are you up for an exciting activity that will have you laughing all the way? If so, then try #Zorb #Rotorua in New Zealand where you roll down a hill in a partly water filled transparent plastic ball. We found it to be Super-Fun! #NewZealand https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Rotorua/#zorb
The perfectly smooth water of the Mirror Lakes near Te Anau in New Zealand is only occasionally disturbed by ducks the water. And that happened, of course, during our visit. :) #NewZealand https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Queenstown/#cruise
Commercial Bay is a nice modern shopping mall in downtown #Auckland which has a large international food court. Most of the restaurants are Asian, but you can also get real yummy Greek and non-Asian food. What is your favorite food? #NewZealand https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Auckland/#af

#Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa #newzealand
A woman (40s?) is mountain biking by a river. She gets to the top of a big hill and whistles, laughing when a wet and muddy spaniel bursts from the water, belts up the bank and down the hill at her side. Pure doggy joy. Paws pounding the dirt.
A small human (5?) wearing a serious expression is crouched next to a large spiderweb. She's armed with a Special Scientific Investigation Stick but she's not quite sure what to do with it. So she pokes her younger brother instead. Yes. This type of science is far more satisfying.
A woman (20s?) in a blue felt hat is walking through a flea market with a spring in her step. She's brandishing two padded coat hangers decorated in lace and ribbons in one hand, waving at friends with the other. Her wardrobe's gonna live it large today!
A tiny human (1?) has lost her nose! (Oh no!) Dad's holding it between two of his fingers. She stares wide eyed at him, shocked at this anatomical feat, only to chortle with delight when he puts it back, holding up his splayed hand up as evidence.
A woman (80s?) is sitting on a bench overlooking a park and mountains just on sunset. She's got a sketchpad in her lap, a wooden box of pastels at her side and is hard at work capturing the colours. Her gruntling and snortling bulldog rubbing his face on the grass nearby.
